Scenes from the Ritter Park Memorial Arch Ceremony

The Veterans Committee for Civic Improvement conducted its annual Memorial Day ceremony at the Memorial Arch on Monday morning. More than 200 people were in attendance.

Edward Peckham, veterans coordinator for Hospice of Huntington and the ceremony's principal speaker, spoke about the sacrifice veterans make, telling those in attendance that "All gave some, but some gave all."

The ceremony was attended by several veterans, with some having served in World War II. Huntington native Winslow Terry, 96, was just one of the WWII veterans in attendance. He was an army quartermaster in England during the war and placed a wreath for the Honor Flight Association.
